Vehicle Description
The 2009 Dodge Challenger SRT-8 is possibly the best retro muscle
machine out there. After all, it gets its design cues from some of
the meanest sheetmetal of the era, and then you add in 425
horsepower of a modern HEMI V8 and a six-speed manual. Plus, the
modern comfort of A/C, leather seats, sat-nav, and so much more
makes this ultra low-mileage, one-owner coupe an irresistible
icon.
Hemi Orange is not only a great factory color, but also a terrific
name to have on a street-eating coupe like this one. It's a
throwback to the High Impact colors that helped make these Mopar
muscle cars so memorable back in the height of the muscle car era.
Today that factory-applied paint is still so striking, because the
3,933 miles on the odometer is no typo. This car has been treated
like the future classic it is since day one, and you see it over
every inch of this bold orange. But to call this Challenger
"babied" is a bit tough, because there is nothing infantile about
its appearance. Dodge's SRT (Street and Racing Technology) division
knows how to make these look like street brawlers even when
standing still. The chin spoiler, carbon fiber hood stripes, HEMI
vented hood complete w/callouts, and the full-width rear spoiler
are all clear indications this is muscle car for the modern era.
But Dodge also got the details right, too, by striking a perfect
balance between retro design and modern attraction. You see it in
everything from the classic fuel filler cap to the large 20-inch
forged factory alloy wheels.
Inside, the leather bucket seats with comfortable suede inserts
match the rest of this deep black interior. While it really lets
you know this Challenger has a dark side, it's also quite
fashionable with nice touches like orange streak across the
seatbacks. As you power adjust the driver's grippy bucket, you
instantly realize that this retro muscle car is far more
comfortable than anything that came out of the '60s or '70s. It's
loaded with the best modern features, including power windows,
power locks, tilt/telescopic wheel, heated seats, keyless entry &
ignition, cruise control, and dual airbags. The AM/FM/CD/XM stereo
is a premium touchscreen unit that includes everything from
satellite navigation to a thumpin' subwoofer speaker system. But we
know your real favorite soundtrack comes from the dual exhaust.
You'll be running with the windows down so much that you'll be glad
to know the air conditioning is blowing ice cold.
While the SRT-8 package makes this Challenger look aggressive on
the interior and exterior, it's real value comes from what's under
the hood. You have the fuel-injected 6.1-liter HEMI V8 radiating
power from the engine bay, and with such low mileage, this original
V8 has barely been broken in. It growls to life like no other
modern car out there, and with 425 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque
straight from the factory, this one will outrun its muscle car
ancestry. Best of all, not everyone gets to be in complete control
like you do with the six-speed manual transmission. This rare
factory feature means you can go from mild to wild in one
downshift. But serious power is only part of this car's story. It
might look retro, but the fully independent sports suspension, big
Brembo four-wheel disc brakes w/ABS, and Goodyear Eagle F1 Sport
tires are all part of a very modern package that keeps you in
control like no '60s muscle car ever could.
Complete with the full owner's manual kit, you've already fallen in
love with the looks, the features, and the dominating HEMI V8. So
when a future classic is this appealing and this affordable, you
know you need to act fast. Call today!!!
